Kiwi here, good job. Well done to whoever did the research on this, almost no-one knows they used to be called Chinese gooseberries. Great job on your pronunciation of Māori names too, Te Puke was spot on!THANK YOU for calling them Kiwi FRUIT (shame they didn’t in the title). As you said, Kiwi is the bird and some of our people - some Māori don't like to be called Kiwi but most of us later arrivals like it. 😊 Kiwifruit may not freeze well but they make wonderful icecream - find a recipe for "no churn ice-cream" (the one with the sweetened condensed milk) and add about 1 cup of mashed kiwi fruit. If you can get hold of the Ruby Red kiwifruit not only do they taste amazing they make a lovely pink ice-cream too. 🍨

Its not an allergy, kiwifruit contain a compound called actinidain which functions very similar to bromelain in that it breaks down proteins. The gold ones are probably just a lot lower in that compound. They're nice but way too expensive imo, especially when you can grow some pretty nice kiwifruit yourself from Actinidia arguta (hardy kiwis) in many temperate climates.

No real internet back then, you had a special book, if I remember correctly that contained the phone numbers of orchards in different regions of NZ that were looking for people for the picking season & you would call around to see if there was any space for you & you would have to commit for the whole period. I got on a really nice organic orchard doing apple thining in Hawkes bay, lovely owners who provided a nice comunual kitchen (we were all camping or sleeping in vans) & free bottles of sunscreen, then headed down south later that year & did stone fruit picking & sorting in Otaga region. In between plenty of hiking & van life.

It's a cultural issue partly: Kiwi's need to be more assertive and courageous. BE A KIWI, NOT A SHEEP!! Kiwi birds fight like demons when attacked. Most New Zealanders just take it then complain, like sheep... No action or fighting spirit... Aussies are better in this respect. If you piss off an Australian you will know about it... Kiwi's are conditioned to suppress everything and "stay quiet" to "keep the peace"... even if that means accepting tyranny!! Partly why our drug use and DV rates are so high. All that repressed anger and dakness doesn't just disappear. Too many of us are too passive with no balls or courage when tested. I am useless at many things and am not perfect. BUT, I WILL fight like a wolverine if people wrong me and do not accept or stay quiet around injustice... I'm part Spanish and part Kiwi. Moving to Spain soon. Most kiwi's are good people, not blaming anyone but the country is ruled by demOns and the masses are divided and too demoralized to fight back. Ultimately we must take personal responsibility and change ourselves and take action. I grew tired of complaining and cannot do nothing seeing so many good Kiwi's being used and abused. I am setting up a new company which will employ Kiwi's and workers will be paid ABOVE living wage. "Be the change you wish to see"

Growers didn’t need license to grow the green kiwifruit, but you need a license from Zespri to grow gold and red kiwifruit. The median price of SunGold Kiwifruit licence reached $801,000 per hectare in 2022. Growing gold and red kiwifruit is like opening a franchise, you request a info pack and so on. Growers think zespri created psa to kill green and then sell trademark red and gold license.

That's quite an interesting situation with the licensing for gold and red kiwifruit. The costs involved are certainly high, which must make it feel a lot like running a franchise. Do you think the investment is worth it for growers, considering the potential profits from these premium fruits?

China produces 3 times more kiwifruit than New Zealand now. It will be 10 times more by 2030. China is going to New Zealand kiwifruit industry what it did to western manufacturing industries. Riak in kiwifruit is very high

did this scientist earn anything from breeding a disease-resistant kiwi?

I prefer the kiwiberry. You can eat it with the skin, they are a bit sweeter than a green kiwi but still has lot of the flavour. The gold one is also a bit sweeter but for me has less flavour. The red one I had once and were very sweet but no flavour at all

I prefer gold kiwi more than the green counterpart too. It's sweeter, more robust in flavour, and has a fruitier body.

I hate the gold kiwi because they’re sweeter, less acidic. They don’t have the same strong, bold flavor of the green kiwi which are much better tasting.
